Sun. 3/4 - Lakers vs Heat - Predictions & Comments

Who said we weren't athletic? Great play by Blake and Barnes there. Got the crowd going.

The number of times Laker games have been cut into by overtime games is absolutely astounding. I think it's about a 50% chance the game before them goes into overtime. Crazy.

Barnes made a shot at the rim...... First on in a month it seems......

all we need is 1 more special player, and we will be challenging for the title again..

I think it gives him more assurance that nothing serious would happen to his face, allowing him to attack more aggressively without worrying about contacts made to his face.

Kobe was awesome.
Bynum had 2 points, 4 boards, and 3 blocks. Good work.
Artest looked solid on D. I think he's doing a good job bodying up and making James work.
Pau with a solid all around performance (no Bosh, so he won't get destroyed).
Blake looked good, too.

god damnit it's killing me missing this. The one time we actually look like we're playing good ball against an elite team and I can't see it.

Kobe is 8-10 jeez, hope the bigs get involved now he's going to cool off eventually.

still laughing at his post skills.

I don't know why I should be surprised by anything Kobe does these days. The guy is unreal and as Laker fans we should enjoy every minute of it. I don't know if there will be another when he's finally done.

I hope Kobe doesn't cool down dramatically.

Some players are athletic. Barnes certainly is. Blake is fairly athletic too - dosn't jump too high but has great agility and stamina. Pau is very agile and quick for a 7-1 guy. Kobe is still good. Bob is extremely athletic, but doesn't play and Glock is solid.

But overall, you would not call a team with Fish, Metta, Murf, Kapo and Luke on it "athletic."

Since there are only about 7 of those in the league we will have to find another way unfortunately....

It's only 1 quarter !! You know how we can blow big leads

The 59% shooting is great, but we hang our hats on the defense. They're at 39%. Keep that up and the Lakers will win.

Who was Kobe talking to on the bench...

Talking to himself?

Beautiful move by Bynum!

Great possession by Bynum waiting it out...

Yeah, Drew.

not talking about bonafide franchise player. i'm talking about a supporting star.

Good cut and pass.

I like what I'm seeing from Bynum. Nice post move and good decision making on that pass.

They have to triple Bynum.

Barns misses another chippy and then the free throws......
